Chapter 406

After the banquet, the generals returned to the camp.

Huang Zu's deputy, Jiang Xia governor Su Fei, caught a glimpse of Gan Ning's in uninterested mood when he left the venue, so he followed him to return to the camp.

He is from Linjiang, Ba County, Yizhou, Ganning Province. His ancestors were named Gan Mao, the famous minister of the Qin Dynasty.

The Ganmao family originated from Xiacai, Jiujiang County, Yangzhou. The Gan family continued to migrate westward for hundreds of years during the Qin and Han dynasties. They first migrated to Nanyang County, Jingzhou, and then moved to Ba County, Yizhou, and developed into one of the five prominent families in the area.

When Gan Ning was a teenager, he enjoyed the affairs of a wanderer, and killed people with a light heart. He was heard in the county.

Thanks to the strong enough family strength, Gan Ning did not look like Guan Yu and Xu Shu killed someone and fled to another place. Instead, the officials from the city had to be warmly welcomed.

Even such powerful and unworthy descendants are destined to be a world of difference from ordinary poor children, because the starting point of his career is a planner.

The so-called "scheme envoy" of the prefectures and counties is responsible for submitting the performance indicators of money, grain, taxes, household registration and other performance indicators in the jurisdiction to the subordinates of the superior department. Although this position is an errand job, it can frequently contact high-quality positions of the powerful and wealthy.

At the same time, those who became officials as agents included Zheng Xuan, Xu Jing, Jiang Ji, Jiang Wei, etc., who were basically local people.

Because of his high starting point for office, Ganning's second position was appointed as the Minister of Shu County (equivalent to the current deputy mayor of the provincial capital).

The future was bright, but the restlessness that Gan Ning developed when she was a teenager was destined not to walk on the path paved by her parents.

In the first year of Xingping, Liu Yan died of illness. Liu Zhang succeeded to the throne of Yizhou. Gan Ning and Shen Mi and Lou initiated a rebellion. They were defeated and fled to Jingzhou to rely on Liu Biao.

Gan Ning's status as a wealthy clan is effective in Yizhou and not in Jingzhou, and he is destined not to be reused.

He stayed in Jingzhou for several years and was depressed. It was not until two years ago that Sun Quan succeeded to the throne in Jiangdong. Gan Ning saw the opportunity to go and join him. As a result, he was stopped by Huang Zu in Jiangxia and has been stranded to this day.

Gan Ning has eight or nine hundred elite troops, and Huang Zu could not let him take over Jiangdong, nor would he be willing to use this wealthy hero who "respects wealth and respects men, and raises healthy men".

Reusing the thorns requires risks. Liu Biao does not need to do so because of political considerations, and Huang Zu does not need to do so because of fear that he cannot control his reusing.

Gan Ning returned to the camp and lay directly on the camp bed with his clothes. His black eyes stared at the roof and fell into deep thought, thinking about the Zhao Yun who had just drunk with him.

For more than ten years, Gan Ning felt the pressure for the first time, and the feeling of pure force was oppression.

Such a person should be a guard for others?

"Xingba, are you going to sleep now?"

"Governor Su?"

Hearing Su Fei's voice, Gan Ning exerted force on her waist and sat up directly.

Su Fei walked to the edge of the couch and sat down, looking at Gan Ning and said seriously, "I have already agreed to the prefect that I will take you with me on this expedition, seize the opportunity to perform well and make contributions. The achievements in the future will not be inferior to me."

"really?"

Gan Ning was happy when he heard this. He was born in a wealthy family, and he didn't care about his career being open. He just wanted to be a wealthy family roamed with a bell and enjoy the joy of fighting.

Su Fei nodded solemnly: "I will board the ship tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock. Remember to obey the command and be independent. The prefect is particularly strict in governing the army."

"Don't worry, I know what to do." Gan Ning stood up and clasped his fists and said, "Thank you for your recommendation from the governor. If I did something wrong, remember to mention me."

Su Fei shook his head gently: "I'm afraid I can't mention it. I want to stay with the young master Jiangxia, so you can do it yourself."

"Oh well"

Gan Ning nodded slightly. Seeing that Su Fei was about to leave after giving instructions, he shouted and asked, "Governor Su, are you familiar with the guard beside Liu Ziyang?"

"Xingba asked Zhao Zilong? What's wrong with him?" Su Fei looked curious.

Gan Ning frowned and replied, "I feel that this person is not simple, and he can put pressure on me invisibly."

"Haha." Su Fei smiled and said, "It's right that you are under pressure. Zhao Zilong is not just a simple matter? The Duke wrote to praise him for his enemies. He suppressed rebellions in Anlu, Nanxin and other places in the north a few months ago. He almost killed generals in every battle, and most of them were one-piece to defeat the enemy."

Gan Ning swallowed: "So strong? He actually serves as a guard for Liu Ziyang?"

Su Fei shook his head gently: "Liu Ziyang is Liu Xuande's think tank. He attaches great importance to this think tank. Liu Xuande has a stronger Guan Zhang. Guan Yu and Guan Yunchang, you should know that? Behead Yan Liang in the thousands of troops."

"I know"

Gan Ning rubbed his forehead and thought to himself that I wanted to be like Guan Yu. Then he asked in confusion: "What kind of virtue is Liu Xuande? So many powerful generals are devoted to him?"

"Duke Xuande is famous for his kindness and righteousness, but I haven't had the chance to meet him yet." Su Fei said and joked about Gan Ning and said, "If Xingba was still in Xiangyang at this time, he could see his style."

"hehe."

Gan Ning smiled and refused to say anything. He originally planned to vote for Sun Quan, but Sun Quan was defeated in Huainan this year. If he lost again in Yuzhang next, wouldn't he make a joke? Therefore, this battle also means to investigate the future boss.

As for Liu Bei, who was extended from Zhao Yun, Gan Ning was quite vague about this uncle Liu, but no matter how charming the princes who were living under others were, they could not have a bright future.

After seeing Su Fei off and resting, Gan Ning had a good dream that night.

Perhaps because he was about to be able to fight, Gan Ning dreamed of returning to the years of the rogue when he was young, "the boat was singing a brocade, and the bell was carrying a bell."

The next day, Huang Zu arrived at the school to order troops.

The more than 20,000 troops and horses that Jiangxia went to fight were divided into five armies in front, left, right, middle and back.

Gan Ning, who was "in connection", was assigned to be the substitute of the rear army. There were only more than 3,000 people in total, and Liu Ye and more than 100 guards were also included.

Huang Zu's troops were well-designed. He had no intention of letting the rear army participate in the war. He took them to observe his victory.

Gan Ning comforted himself that the battle was more intense, so that he would have a chance to come on as a substitute, and he would let Huang Zu see the strength of the "Jinfan Thief".

However, the Jingzhou side was well prepared. A few days before the troops left Jiangxia, Huang Zu knew that Liu Pan had launched an attack from land, attracting Sun Ben's attention to the mountainous areas such as Jianchang in the northwest of Yuzhang. Huang Zu took advantage of the opportunity to attack Haihun and Nanchang and other major cities.

The western and northern parts of Yuzhang County, Jianchang, Aixian, Haihun, Liling and other counties were originally Taishici's defense areas.

Taishi Ci was transferred to Huainan as the commander of the commander, and Sun Quan did not send new people to replace him, so Sun Ben became the "full body" Yuzhang Prefect, but the funny mood did not last long. Jianchang and Ai County in the northwest were in a hurry at the same time.

In mid-October, Taishi Ci had been transferred for less than three months. Liu Biao led his troops to invade from his son Liu Pan. The number of troops was far greater than the previous attack, as if he was slapping Sun Ben in the face.

Liu Pan seemed to be telling Sun Ben with his actions that I would give Taishi Ci face but not you because you look easier to bully than the other party.

Sun Ben was once the second-generation leader of the Sun family. He knew that his martial arts skills were not as good as Taishi Ci, but he felt that his military use was not as good as that of Taishi Ci, so he ordered 6,000 troops to save Jianchang first and then Ai County.
